Supports have already been removed and surfaces cleaned, so you can get straight to the hobby the moment it arrives at your door. The kit comes in 25 parts and measures approximately 32mm from feet to eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis five-soldier squad brings serious firepower to the tabletop. The set includes a twin-barrelled field cannon emplacement set behind sandbag cover, a commanding officer with binoculars and a raised fist barking orders, a seated mortar operator loading a round under fire, and a two-soldier rocket launcher team working in close coordination. Each figure is rendered in sharp, characterful detail, from the heavy greatcoats and buckled leather harnesses to the gas mask lenses, steel helmets, and worn ammunition crates.
